I think that 1092 martin, 1207 young and 1005.9 werner are the best, also 1402 bosworth and 1445 marsh are nice crosses.

Three ways, IMHO, to look at it:

1. Hybrid vigor theory-cross the two most unrelated seeds you have listed(assuming those are the only ones you are growing)....they are all marvelous seeds.

2. Percent heavy theory-cross the two which went the most percent heavy(making the same assumption as above)

3. Combine both theories

Tough choices indeed.

I am with Jim on this one, 2-1248s.
I grew the 1248 2 years ago and it went heavy and was orange. Nice combo.
